[Verse]
Blood thicker than water till it’s spilling my skin,
Told me it’s love, but the heart clipped with pins,
Dinner table talk tasting venom and sins,
I’m chain-linked to pain, that’s where the poison begins.
[Chorus]
You lied to my face, called it family tradition,
Carved up my trust like a surgeon’s precision,
Tears hit the floor, they dance to derision,
Toxicity's home, I’m locked in the prison.
[Verse 2]
Promises shattered like glass in my palms,
Offered you a lifetime, you handed me psalms,
Bible verses sharp, no comfort or calm,
Raised fists in the air, a spiritual bomb.
[Bridge]
Every word, daggers with whispers edged,
Family roots rotten, the love unpledged,
Tree limbs bare, ancestral unhedged,
Buried deep screaming where the grave is wedged.
[Chorus]
You lied to my face, called it family tradition,
Carved up my trust like a surgeon’s precision,
Tears hit the floor, they dance to derision,
Toxicity's home, I’m locked in the prison.
[Verse 3]
Mama crying loud, dad’s coat always gone,
Bruises on the floor feel like a loaded song,
Truth buried deep with the rights and the wrongs,
I’m the child of the chaos, where I didn’t belong.
